Web design firm Third Wave Digital has unveiled a design and coding package to help colleges and universities convert their sites to responsive Web design, which optimizes site layout based on computer or device screen size. The package is available now.

Third Wave Digital creates customizable games and virtual campus tours that include animations, interactive videos, campus maps, and slide shows. It provides script writing, on-location videography, post-production, editing, and directing services. In addition, the Macon, GA-based company provides back-end development for creation of content management systems, Web site hosting, and design services.

Third Wave Digital’s new design and coding package includes:

CSS3 transitions that animate breakpoints;

Optimization of site layout depending on screen size for desktop, smartphone, and tablet screen sizes, with both horizontal and vertical layouts; and

Compatibility with all major browsers.

"While more time consuming to design and code, a responsive Web site provides the flexibility that is essential for reaching today's students no matter what platform they are using to access online information,” explained a news release from Third Wave Digital.
